Great hotel. Great balcony. Convenient location for restaurants, the bus, and the less busy beach. Gippy was great with help, saved some money at restaurants, we had a great stay.
AMAZING SPOT! Could not recommend more. 10min walk to the heart of Positano, 1min walk to amazing restaurants. Included breakfast exceeded expectations, gorgeous view and Terrance. Gippy was super nice and helpful. Def staying here again if we come back!
The owner has done a marvelous Job. The customer service is amazing, the view is surreal and the location is great. You can catch the bus just a few stairs up, or you can get to the beach directly down.
Gippy and his wife have created a gorgeous haven of beauty, kindness, and peace at the Venus Inn! They are generous enough to share it with their guests as if we are all family. Gippy was super helpful, and a genuinely kind and authentic person that we feel lucky to have encountered. He helped with all kinds of travel arrangements including from the Naples train station, and for sightseeing along the Amalfi coast, as well as local walking and bus travel in Positano. We noticed how much he enjoyed interacting with each guest and made them feel comfortable and at home at this gorgeous Inn with the most heavenly views from the rooms and the terrace. Breakfast service was friendly and very enjoyable with the beautiful views and cheerful conversations. Positano itself is a wonderful place and this Inn is located very well and convenient to the local bus stop and beach. Thank you!
Venus B&B is an excellent place to stay in Positano. The staff was super friendly and very accommodating. Breakfast was loaded with great fresh goodies to get you ready for the day. Beautiful sea views from your balcony day and night. Thank you Venus B&B for an unforgettable Beautiful vacation.
Gippy is very hospitable, informative,
Provided us with , excellent transportation back to Napoli, great location to tasty restaurants,
Venus Inn has a Gorgeous view of the rolling hills and sea,
We had a wonderful stay at the Venus Inn! Gippy was very friendly and welcoming! The room was very spacious and clean. We had a great balcony! It was about a 10-15 minute walk from the main beach. Lots of restaurants nearby too!
Could not recommend this spot enough! Such a great value, perfect location for the price, gorgeous views, and a host that truly goes above and beyond. Gippy was incredibly helpful, kind, communicative, and friendly- plus the breakfasts were amazing. Truly spectacular, we can’t wait to come back!
Excellent place to say when in Positano. The owner, Gippy was such a great host. He made sure I had the best time the entire time I was there. The place was very convenient for everything. Highly recommended.
Great property with a beautiful view of Positano and the Mediterranean. Location is impeccable, walking distance to beach and town. Gippy and Anna Maria ensured facilities were always clean. Gippy arranged our transfers to and from Napoli Centrale. He was very helpful and provided clear instructions for check-in and check-out. Breakfast was delicious and abundant - those fresh warm croissants cannot be beat! Thank you Gippy for the hospitality. Highly recommend Venus B&B to anyone staying in Positano!
Great views, awesome owner, bit strange and humble
Views are great, close to a secondary beach, the room is basic to say the least, had some strange experiences here but the owner of this B&B is awesome. Love Gippy.
We had a beautiful time at Venus Inn. It is in close proximity to restaurants, shops, the beach and marina. Great value. Positano is breathtaking. Giuseppe greeted us and was available to us at any time throughtout our stay. When I return to Positano I will definitely stay here again :):)
My boyfriend and I stayed at Venus B&B for 4 nights and really enjoyed our stay. Our host Gippy was so hospitable and provided us with maps and tips on where to go. The location of this B&B was ideal because it gave out to the most splendid view of Positano. We truly enjoyed our stay there because Gippy made us feel so welcome. Plus he makes a delicious cappucino :)
We enjoyed our stay in this excellent location for Positano. Our host Gippy is fantastic and has great recommendations for sightseeing and dining not only in Postiano but along the Amalfi Coast. The rooms are simple and very nice. We found the rooms very clean as well as the shower. We wanted a room with a view, and we got a fantastic view, with a terrace for a great value. We did have breakfast at an additional $4euros per person, and we thought it was perfect. Fresh fruit and croissants, jam and juice and delicious coffee made fresh, plus we could walk out on our terrace and enjoy the morning while having breakfast. We loved Positano and the Venus Inn B & B!
The B&B is well located, giving great views of the coast and of Positano. Gippy was incredibly friendly and helpful, he is a very genuine person and gave us good tips during our stay - we wouldn't hesitate to return. He definitely goes above and beyond and really added to our great Amalfi experience!

Great cheap and cheerful option in Positano
We stayed in room 4 for four nights recently and had a great time. The rooms, while basic, are spacious and comfortable. The breakfast is lovely (coffee, fresh fruit from Gippys garden and croissants with spreads) and served on the terrace overlooking the fornillo valley and sea. Gippy is very helpful, seems to speak every language imaginable and is full of great advice so make sure you share your plans with him over breakfast and he'll point you in the right direction. The location is also pretty good, 400 steps down to fornillo beach or about 15 mins walk down the road to the main beach/port.
A couple of tips - Positano is in a valley and sound (like a neighbours dog barking at night) carries far and wide so take earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Also don't leave food in your room as you are likely to find it covered in ants when your return.
Venus B&B Positano is in a great location - 20 minute stroll from beach/water taxis/shops/restaurants. Room large and comfortable, good shower. Fantastic view from terrace where breakfast was served. The best part of the Venus B&B is the owner Gippy - a wonderful host who can't do enough for guests. He made us extremely welcome. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Venus and will certainly return.
Very easy to get to and on the local Positano bus line. Gippy was an absolute pleasure and made sure we had all the information we needed each morning. Set on the side of town, B&B Venus had gorgeous views of the water. Breakfast was served every morning with made-to-order cappuccinos and espressos. Gippy gave us plenty of recommendations for things to see/do as well as restaurants to try (none disappointed). The room was very quiet and was cleaned every day. This was a short 10-15 minute walk from the main cathedral and we welcomed the beautiful stroll. Also, Fornillo beach was 10 minutes down steps and was so convenient. This was by far our favorite beach and had all the amenities of the main beach without the crowd (5-6 beach bars with renting loungers). I would 100% recommend this B&B to anyone who stays in Positano!!
